What campers say

The West Fork Campground sits along a scenic river with cliff and mountain views; many sites are well spaced with trees for privacy and you can often hear the river. A consistent highlight is the camp host’s friendliness and unusually clean pit toilets; potable water, trash bins and firewood are available. Sites suit tents, vans and RVs with a mix of reservations and first-come spots. Practical tradeoffs include a rough, bumpy dirt access road (slow travel recommended), limited cell service, and basic pit-style facilities despite their cleanliness. Overall quiet and good for hiking and relaxation.

📖 About This Campground

West Fork Campground sits near the West Fork San Juan River in a secluded 10-acre area, just over a mile from Highway 160. Visitors enjoy the area for its hiking opportunities and plentiful solitude.
The campground offers single-family sites, some of which are adjacent to the river but without direct views. Most sites are suitable for large RVs. Picnic tables and campfire rings are provided, as are vault toilets and drinking water.
The West Fork and nearby Wolf Creek offer fishing opportunities, but are heavily fished streams. Only skilled and patient fishermen have much luck in these waters. The West Fork Trail, also known as the Rainbow Trail, leads into the Weminuche Wilderness from a trailhead a mile beyond the campground. The first portion of the trail passes through private property, so please stay on the trail and leave the gates as you find them.
